![]() Mon 22nd Jan I'm playing The End is Nigh at the moment and enjoying it, but I don't like it as much as Super Meat Boy.At the end of each stage, the dastardly Professor Fetus will re-abduct said damsel, thus forcing you to continue on your path. There are no enemies to speak of, save for the occasional boss, but all of the challenges you'll face involve navigating perilous environs to reunite Meat Boy with his main squeeze, Bandage Girl. ![]() As with old games, you really only need two buttons, with the Y button controlling your dash and the B button controlling your jump. He has a blood-fueled dash, a jump that would make Mario blush and a wall-jump that behaves very similarly to that of Mega Man X. Jumps require pixel-perfect accuracy to avoid traps such as spikes, salt and blades that will reduce the titular Meat Boy to a puddle of blood.Īs with heroes of the games of old, his repertoire is limited, but effective. Veterans of the 8-bit era will find it to be an exaggerated version of the hard games from the NES days. It's an unforgiving, old-school style platformer, both mechanically and visually. If you haven't played SMB before, you're in for a treat. ![]() SMB is the brainchild of Binding Of Isaac creator Edmund McMillen, who started the Meat Boy franchise on Newgrounds in 2008. Super Meat Boy is the latest success story on Nintendo's latest hardware, despite having released on Wii U late in 2016. Stop us if you've heard this one before Switch just got a port of a last-gen classic and it's selling like hotcakes.
